Following the Jang Yoon-ki case and the false closure of the Jeju missing person case, public trust in the police has fallen significantly. With the Prosecutors' Office—which has served to keep the police in check and supplement police investigations—now facing abolition, public anxiety is bound to grow even larger. We spoke with Pyo Chang-won, head of the Pyo Chang-won Crime Science Research Institute, about whether the police are prepared to face a situation without prosecutors and what direction the police should take moving forward. Listen to why Director Pyo issued a public warning to the National Police Agency that it could be dismantled just like the Prosecutors' Office.
